I'll start by saying I haven't made a pick on the Eagles as of 10 p.m. ET on Saturday night. The uncertainty surrounding Jalen Hurts and his impact on the Philly offense has me waiting. If we get more certainty on his status, then check back on Monday to see if I lock in a bet on the Eagles' side.
Considering that the Eagles rank in the bottom three in the league in touchdowns allowed to slot receivers, I'm all over Jaxon Smith-Njigba to score on Monday Night Football.
When you expand that stat to include all wide receivers, the Eagles lead the league with 23 TDs allowed. In the last three games alone, Philly has allowed eight touchdowns to receivers.

There's quarterback uncertainty for the Seahawks on Monday night as Geno Smith is questionable with a groin injury.
If it's Drew Lock under center again, that's not necessarily bad news. Lock wasn't horrible against the 49ers last week, going 22-for-31 for 269 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. Lock has also shown he’ll throw the ball downfield in games with a trailing game script.
I like DK Metcalf — five TDs in his last four games — to score as well with Eagles CB Darius Slay out, but at +185, that’s not enough value for me.
